Al-Naimi O.T., McCabe J.F.; Fluoride Release of three Riva GI Products Compared with that of a Competitor Product (First year report); Newcastle University UK, August 2006.
To measure the fluoride release and the change in weight, in deionised distilled water, of two restorative materials: Riva Silver and Riva LC and two fissure sealants: Riva Protect, Fuji Triage. The plan is to carry out this study over the scope of three years.
Throughout the study (except on day 360) and in decreasing order, Riva Protect and Fuji Triage glass ionomer cement materials released significantly greater amounts of fluoride than Riva Silver and Riva LC. On day 360 Fuji Triage started releasing lower levels of fluoride than Riva Silver.
Riva Protect has the highest fluoride release among the four products studied.

To measure the fluoride release of three conventional glass ionomer cements: Riva Self Cure fast set; Riva Protect Pink fast; Fuji IX GP Extra; and a resin modified glass ionomer cement Ketac Nano.
Throughout the four months of this study (except for the first day) and in a decreasing order, Riva Protect fast cement released significantly greater amounts of fluoride than Riva Self Cure fast set, Fuji IX GP Extra and Ketac Nano respectively.
